Declares that the authorized amounts and personnel ceilings for such intelligence activities are those specified in the classified schedule of authorizations prepared by the conference committee to accompany this Act. Authorizes the Director of Central Intelligence to employ civilian personnel in excess of the ceiling for such personnel when necessary to the performance of important intelligence functions. Amends the National Security Act of 1947 to restrict the use of CIA Reserve for Contingencies funds. Title II: Intelligence Community Staff - Authorizes appropriations for the Intelligence Community Staff for FY 1990 and 1991. Establishes an end strength ceiling of 230 full-time Intelligence Community Staff employees. Provides that such staff shall be administered in the same manner as the CIA. Title III: Central Intelligence Agency Retirement and Disability System - Authorizes appropriations for the Central Intelligence Agency Retirement and Disability Fund for FY 1990 and 1991. Title IV: Central Intelligence Agency Administrative Provisions - Amends the Central Intelligence Agency Retirement Act of 1964 for Certain Employees to require participants, within the last two years before any separation from service, to complete at least one year of creditable civilian service to be eligible for an annuity. Provides for precedence of survivor benefits over death in service benefits for certain former spouses of CIA employees eligible for such benefits. Amends the Central Intelligence Act of 1949 to provide CIA employees in the Civil Service Retirement System and the Federal Employees' Retirement System (FERS) performing qualifying service with the same disability and death in service benefits as those received by employees who qualify under the Central Intelligence Agency Retirement and Disability System and the FERS-Special Category. Title V: Personnel Authorities Improvements - Authorizes the Secretary of Defense to accept gifts for the Defense Intelligence College. Makes permanent the Secretary of Defense's authority to terminate employment of civilian intelligence officers and employees of military departments and of the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA). Amends the Immigration and Nationality Act with respect to citizenship requirements for staff of the U.S. Army Russian Institute. Authorizes the Secretary, during FY 1990, to pay a certain death gratuity to the surviving dependents of a member of the armed forces who, while serving on active duty assigned to a Defense attache office abroad, died as a result of hostile or terrorist activities. Requires the Secretary to report to the Congress concerning the advisability of making such provision permanent. Title VI: FBI Enhanced Counterintelligence Authorities - Amends the Intelligence Authorization Act for fiscal year 1989 to provide that New York Field Division employees need not be subject to directed geographical transfer or reassignment to receive periodic payments under a certain demonstration project for the Division. Expresses the sense of the Congress with respect to personnel ceilings for the United States and Soviet Missions. Makes the FBI responsible for investigations of espionage by persons employed by, or assigned to, U.S. diplomatic missions abroad.
